Hey.
Kindly reminder.
Content creators are not your friends just because you like their work. You do not know who we are.
This goes double for anyone under 18; be very careful about interacting with adults.
If any adult makes you feel uncomfortable, DO NOT ENGAGE THEM. RUN.
Kindly reminder.

Heads up to artists and people who commission them
Paypal is doing that thing again where they try to destroy artists livlihoods by putting innocuous "feedback" review boxes when you complete an invoice
Do artists a favor and just leave it blank this is just a tactic to suss out NSFW creators

Link's banning is the tip of the iceberg of systematic issues that have been present since the beginning of Bluesky. You may not remember Black users leaving en masse because devs were ok with slurs in usernames but I do.
Bluesky has a serious problem that's never been dealt with. It's time.

I've said this before, will say it again:
The CEO of this place got her career started in the technofascist crypto space, so the idea that she was some leftist progressive stalwart has always been a bunch of horseshit.
She is literally -one- of them and always has been.

![In 2015, Graber began working as a software engineer for SkuChain in Mountain View, California.[1] She then worked in a factory in Moses Lake, Washington, where she soldered bitcoin mining equipment.[1] In 2016, she began working as a junior developer for the Zcash cryptocurrency.[1][5][6] In 2019, she founded the event planning website Happening, Inc.[1][5][6]
In August 2021, Graber became the first CEO of Bluesky, a microblogging social platform and public benefit company.[7][8][9] Bluesky had been conceived as a new initiative by Twitter's original owners in 2019, but evolved to become a competitor to Twitter following the 2022 acquisition of Twitter by Elon Musk.[5][6][10][11]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:5rzlkhiq65ar3vhavqxf6roa/bafkreiffho55ffml5uqmj4wtdqbc3pdptc4ilkd4n3xgwml2xmyeqntnvq@jpeg)

I'm watching an adult creator get systematically cut off from every income stream by payment processors and now debankment could be on the table. She makes legal content. They are trying to shut her up and hope that we'll shut up too.
We must get louder. Call Visa and MC. Tell them this will stop.

Ana's situation has gotten more severe. This is blatantly targetted debanking and [extremely unfortunate] proof that these call campaigns are getting under paypros skin
Keep calling Visa and MC and demanding they stop discriminating against adult content!

While everyone's talking about sexuality as a rebellion this morning I'd like to add:
If your sexual liberation doesn't include respect for sex workers of all kinds then you're not actually liberated at all.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

It’s hard to believe but there was a cartoon about an immigrant mouse and it was seen as totally fine and not controversial and not woke because it was an aspirational and nice thing about America that people could come here and find a better life

A little ode to last month! I associate October with many round things: pumpkins, acorns, apples, but also my cats, who become extremely round and fluffy as their fur thickens. Here’s my little ode to the roundest month of the year 🟠
